1. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Calories burned decreases by doing more steps... how??. I wouldn't feel the need to write a review if there were actually a way to troubleshoot this, but there is no support. The calorie count is complete nonsense. I go for a run in the morning, and my calorie count is 350 for the day. I go for an evening walk, and somehow my calorie count for the same day has gone down to 300. How am I burning few calories by doing more exercise?? Update: New glitches! I went for a 75 minute jog, but the app claims that it was only 34 minutes... and also that I was going twice as fast as usual. Does not work.

   Counts Golf cart rides as Steps!. If the app could determine golf cart rides from steps, I’d rate it 5 stars. As is, it’s not much use.

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Gross adds. I downloaded this app, opened it and along the bottom was about 6 pictures of a woman’s dress but mixed in there was a VERY inappropriate picture of a child (girl). I immediately deleted the app and posted this review

4. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

   Inaccurate distance and steps. Used this app with a Fitbit and checked against car odometer. It is grossly under estimating the distance traveled

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   No. Just no.. Literally just installed the app and somehow there are 5 days worth of tracking for last week?! No. Not even playing with these so-called developers anymore! Scam! Slop! Stealing data! F this!

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Sucked battery.. This app ran my iPhone hot and ran battery down fast.

7. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Not working. Wants to activate motion and fitness which is nowhere to be found on my phone. Great start.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Inappropriate ads. It seems that I can only contact support through X and I don’t use X so maybe this will get their attention. I expect ads on a free app but I don’t expect pornographic ads. E button to close the ad leads to Temu. Is Temu using porn to attract attention? Anyway I will shop around for a different pedometer.

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Good but perverted. I like everything about this app but the porn they post at the bottom of my screen. It is disgraceful. You should be ashamed. If I could figure out who to complain to I would. I don’t appreciate seeing a female crotch shot every day. Grow up developer

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Used to work great. I have been using this Pedometer for the last three years and suddenly now when I tried to open it, it immediately closes again. My phone won’t run this app anymore for some reason and I have an iPhone 15 pro. So I’m going to remove it and get it for one because this one for some reason has changed.

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Obscene pictures on this app. Every time I open this app at the bottom is obscene pictures. I do not like that.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Porn. This was app fine until porn ads popped up on it. Deleting today after having it for years. Disappointing.

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    I thought this was the step ap of my dreams…NOT!. When I first got the so installed , I was so happy to have a tool that was straight to the point , simple, user friendly , very minimal permissions. On my first day of walking, I thought it was strange to see it calculated strokes for 5 days prior to me even using the ap. Although odd, I didn’t think it was that big of deal to complain , when I just had to manually adjust the over in total to get my actual count. I was good with that, so I kept using it. It’s truly helped in that aspect and I feel more motivated to walk. Until..I go to share my progress with my grandchild and there is a whole row of images at the bottom lined up of naked men and women in provocative , half naked to naked photos!!!!!! I will be deleting the sp, and reaching out for legal advice on the embarrassment and mental trauma my grandchild endured.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Does not count accurately. After using this app I noticed that lots of my steps are not counted. This is frustrating because I am trying to make sure that I am adding more steps to my total steps and actually have watched the app while walking and the step count doesn’t even start until 20 or so steps are completed and they don’t add up in the end. I have counted steps versus the app and the app undercounts the steps consistently

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Wouldn’t connect to motion. I couldn’t get it to do the basic function which was to detect motion. I kept hitting okay on the screen, but it did not ever request access to motion detection

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Apple Watch. Can I add this to my Apple Watch to keep track of steps?

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Down load won’t finish. Had to erase

18. ★★★★★privacy and excessive permissions

    Unclear Privacy policy. This app does NOT GIVE YOUR THE OPTION TO OPT OUT OF TRACKING. how do I opt out of that?

19. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Lost months. I liked this app because it was simple. It counted my steps. However, weeks of data would just disappear. Chunks of time gone.

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Minimal to a fault. No start button - no manual - zero support - avoid

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Liars. They say it’s free and it’s not

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Problemas con la app. No la recomiendo es malísima

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Apple Watch. Thought this app would work through my Apple Watch, but doesn’t

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Update killed it for me.. I went to use my pedometer app the other day to see how many steps I had taken and it was zero because evidently the new update makes you start it like a stopwatch every day. If you don’t remember to start it every morning, it won’t count your steps. Wonderful!

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Magnificent. Excellent

26. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Ads with sound, absolutely not. Have you ever wanted to open your Pedometer app to check your steps halfway through a grocery trip, and suddenly have Mr. monopoly loudly shouting about how you need to download his game? Yeah me neither. The ads with noise aren’t every time, but they are truly unacceptable, especially when there are so many other apps to choose from.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Advertised information is obnoxious. The advertising is more than intrusive and I will discontinue this app. Perhaps offering a small fee to avoid adds would help.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No customer support. I couldn’t get pas an issue - and could find no way to get any questions answered. I’m going to a different pedometer -

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    It says enable this. It keeps telling me to enable motion and fitness and taking me to set but it does not explain exactly where to do this it makes me feel stupid so I will uninstall this app

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Horrible, not actuate at all. It’s not actuate at all, I walked around an amusement park for 6 hours, and it says I only walked around for 20 minutes…….
